Introduction And Importance: Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic infectious disease caused by an infection with the sporulating bacterium rhinosporidium seeberi. It mostly affects the nose and nasopharynx mucous membranes, but it can also affect the conjunctiva uncommonly. Ocular rhinosporidiosis is most commonly shown as a polypoid tumor in the palpebral conjunctiva.

Article Synopsis
- Colorectal Carcinoma (CRC) is increasingly diagnosed in children, with this report focusing on a rare case of a 14-year-old boy who presented symptoms such as constipation, rectal bleeding, and abdominal pain.
- Diagnostic imaging revealed significant rectal abnormalities, and a biopsy confirmed the presence of Signet Ring Adenocarcinoma, leading to a treatment plan involving neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy followed by surgery.
- The case highlights the urgency for improved CRC screening methods in children and supports the use of chemotherapy and radiotherapy in adolescents, emphasizing that the benefits far surpass the associated risks.
Successful detection of multiple communicating holes in multiple spinal extradural arachnoid cysts by using time-spatial labeling inversion pulse magnetic resonance imaging: illustrative case.

Background: Spinal extradural arachnoid cysts (SEACs) communicate with the subarachnoid space through small communicating dural holes. The precise preoperative detection of all communicating holes, followed by minimally invasive dural closure, is the ideal treatment to prevent postoperative spinal deformities, especially in cases of multiple SEACs. However, standard imaging methods often fail to detect communicating hole locations.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by the presence of medullary thyroid carcinoma, pheochromocytoma, Marfan-like fatigue, a peculiar face with thickening of the lips, mucosal neuromas on the lips and tongue, and gastrointestinal phenomena. Most patients harbor pathological variants of the RET gene. Herein, we present the first case of a 14 year-old boy who experienced small intestinal volvulus along with a megacolon, and he was diagnosed with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B.

Objective: Herein, the results of the cases, who underwent surgical repair with or without ventral abdomino-rectosigmoidopexy through tube sigmoidostomy combined with Ekehorn's rectopexy due to recurrent rectal prolapse, were discussed.
Methods: The demographic characteristics, surgical technique, and results of children who were operated in the department of Pediatric Surgery for rectal prolapse between 2004 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: In 18 years, six pediatric cases (2 females [33%] and 4 males [67%]) were operated for persistent rectal prolapse.
